Mistakes from LeBron James and Anthony Davis doom Lakers in Game 2 loss

(Wally Skalij / Los Angeles Times)

The bet the Lakers made at the NBA's trade deadline in early February was the same one they made in the summer of 2019 when they basically traded everything to form one of the NBA's most talented duos.That gamble, which has paid out a title and busted under repeated injuries, was that as long as the Lakers had Anthony Davis and LeBron James on the court when the games mattered most, they'd have a shot.

Lakers vs. Nuggets: What scouts expect in Western Conference finals

I actually think that Denver is a better matchup for the Lakers compared to the previous two they've had in Memphis and Golden State.The Lakers being a bigger and older team - older in a certain sense - struggle with those dynamic, shifty or explosive guards.I actually think they will fare well against everyone else besides Jokic.

How Anthony Davis Dismantled the Warriors

NBA players can project absolute confidence from the podium of a postgame press conference, but out on the floor, in the heat of play, they'll show you what they're really afraid of.A young player might clam up when the ball swings their way in crunch time.An aging veteran-feeling their own athletic mortality-might balk at the kind of fast break they used to dominate.

As the Lakers struggled to get stops in the fourth as the Pacers dissolved their 17-point lead over 10 minutes, some problems reemerged.The Lakers, especially in the final two minutes, couldn't snuff out possessions as the Pacers dominated the boards, leading to second chances.

Lakers blow 17-point lead late as they fall to Pacers at the buzzer

As far as trades that haven't happened go, this one has been talked about plenty.The idea goes something like this: Buddy Hield is one of the best high-volume three-point shooters in the NBA, the kind of marksman that is a must on a winning LeBron James roster.Myles Turner is one of the best shot blockers in the league and pairing him with Anthony Davis would make life hell on attacking offensive players.
